We are in the process of deploying SAP LeanIX and I'm curious about some of the key use cases other LeanIX customers have been able to explore.  As an Enterprise Architecture practice, we are primarily concerned with strategic alignment and planning so anything in these areas would be great. What use cases have created value in your particular organization?

We just finished implementing LeanIX and expect much of the value to be forthcoming, but already it's enabled us to view, and share graphically, the relationships between various business solutions.  Having a holistic, current state map of our environment helps us perform early impact analysis for projects as they start up.  Additionally, we can use it to model the impact of planned changes in our environment.

Here is a link to a brightspace webinar that I did awhile back describing the journey we took at DeVry University IT with SAP LeanIX.  This may be helpful.  https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/18723/629650?utm_campaign=LinkedIn&utm_source=brighttalk-sharing&utm_medium=web

We’re currently exploring options to implement an iPXE-based WinPE deployment solution in Microsoft Azure. Our goal is to streamline OS provisioning for virtual machines using cloud-hosted boot scripts and WinPE images, ideally over HTTP/S for performance and flexibility. Key requirements: Must support iPXE booting in Azure (via ISO, custom VM image, or chainloading). Ability to host and serve WinPE images securely (e.g., via Azure Blob Storage or web server). Cyber Essentials Plus compliance is essential, as we operate in a regulated environment. Preferably a UK-based provider with experience in secure cloud deployments and endpoint provisioning. We’ve looked into solutions like 2Pint Software’s iPXE Anywhere, but we’re open to other vendors or managed service providers who can assist with setup, integration, and ongoing support. Has anyone implemented a similar solution or worked with a provider who meets this criteria? Any recommendations or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated.

How do you think AI will disrupt business across industries? Add to my list: 1. Content creation 2. Photos and video production 3. Basic coding and debugging 4. Strategic analysis to be highly complimented
